Martin$-$Jones has $500,000$ common shares outstanding. The firm is projecting a $20\%$ increase in net sales for the coming year $(20$X$3).$ Martin$-$Jones uses the percentage of sales approach to plan for its financing needs. In using this approach, the firm assumes that cost of goods sold, depreciation, all assets $($current and fixed$),$ and accounts payable will all remain a constant percentage of sales. The firm will aim to maintain its dividend payout of $35\%$ for the foreseeable future. The interest rate charged on notes payable and long$-$term debt is also expected to remain the same in
